In Small, Medium, and Large, each player is assigned a specific animal name to help define their part’s character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Small animals for the first movement are frog, mouse, finch, and squirrel. These are characterized on smaller instruments such as claves, triangle, xylophone, and woodblocks. The content here is more abstract and intended to be performed in a sporadic, spontaneous fashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy contrast, Medium (Mvt. 2) maintains a brisk forward-moving attitude with its accompanying characters of hyena, cheetah, monkey, and kangaroo. These animals are represented by the snare drum, bongos, congas, and tom-toms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, the animals of the final movement, Large, are lion, tiger, hippo, and elephant. The addition of bass drum and timpani make this movement more heavy and cumbersome in nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAside from the educational elements of characterizations, the musical ideas are just plain fun. Whether performed as a full suite or just selecting individual movements, this will bring out the animals in students–in the best way possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the \u003cstrong\u003eprinted score\u003c\/strong\u003e you are receiving downloadable:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✅\u003cstrong\u003e Individual Parts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e✅\u003cstrong\u003e Full Recording\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/playlists\/253009703\u0026amp;color=%23ff5500\u0026amp;auto_play=false\u0026amp;hide_related=false\u0026amp;show_comments=true\u0026amp;show_user=true\u0026amp;show_reposts=false\u0026amp;show_teaser=true\" height=\"350\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc; line-break: anywhere; word-break: normal; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-weight: 100;\"\u003e\n\u003ca style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Tapspace\" href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/tapspacepublications\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Animals (Brian Slawson)\" href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/tapspacepublications\/sets\/animals-brian-slawson\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/issuu.com\/tapspace\/docs\/animals-sample?fr=sNGE3ODgyODUzOTQ\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/2973\/7494\/files\/download_score_sample_small_aa1b4422-f724-4b42-9953-49885710a3e6.png?v=1669204745\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gxpoYoYesMI?si=-VXjoVkJLM4qRql9\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tapspace Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44088073126166,"sku":"TSPCE16-020","price":44.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/2973\/7494\/products\/28948790242_104e3e9b30_o.jpg?v=1675268965","url":"https:\/\/concertandmarchingmusic.com\/it\/products\/animals-tap-tapspace","provider":"Concert \u0026 Marching Music ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
